Daily Pivots: (S1) 1.2499; (P) 1.2519; (R1) 1.2539; More….
GBP/USD’s decline extends to as low as 1.2439 so far today. Intraday bias remains on the downside for 1.2391 low. Firm break there will resume larger down trend. On the upside, above 1.2539 minor resistance will turn intraday bias neutral first. But near term outlook will stay bearish as long as 1.2783 resistance holds.
In the bigger picture, down trend from 1.4376 (2018 high) is still in progress. Break of 1.2391 would target a test on 1.1946 long term bottom (2016 low). For now, we don’t expect a firm break there yet. Hence, focus will be on bottoming signal as it approaches 1.1946. In any case, medium term outlook will stay bearish as long as 1.3381 resistance holds, in case of strong rebound.
